She survived the famine, thanking God. When she was 19 years old – she got married. She didn’t celebrate it, because at that time was a terrible war. They didn’t have even time for to see each other, as her husband was taken to the front. She waited for letters from him and asked God to return her husband home alive, but in 1944 she received a funeral letter. Her husband was killed in the battles for the liberation of Ukraine.
